SAFETY - START [4.1.c]
Warn bystanders before starting the engine.
Before starting, walk around the whole tractor and any
attached equipment. Make sure that no one is under, on,
or close to the tractor or equipment. Let other workers
and bystanders know you are starting up and don't start
until everyone is clear of the tractor, implements and
towed equipment.
Make sure that everyone, particularly children, is in a
safe position before starting the engine.
Mount and dismount safely.[4.1.e]
Always use 'three point contact' with the machine, and
face the machine when you mount it. Three point contact
means both hands and one foot or one hand and both
feet are in contact with the machine at all times during
mounting and dismounting.
Clean your shoes and wipe your hands before climbing on.
Use handrails, grab handles, ladders or steps (as provided)
when mounting or dismounting.
NEVER use control levers as a hand hold and NEVER step
on foot controls when mounting or dismounting.
DANGER!
NEVER try to go on or off the moving tractor.
If the tractor must be lifted for servicing, take it to a suit-
ably equipped workshop.
Carry out the following operations before any operation
about the tractor: engage the four-wheel drive, the first
gear and the parking brake and put chocks to the wheels
touching the ground.
Before lifting the tractor, avoid its swinging by means of
wooden wedges applied to the front axle (Fig.2-9a): the
chocks (1 - Fig.2-9a) must avoid any swinging of the tractor.
Use jack lifts of suitable capacity and apply them at the
centre of the front and rear axles (Fig. 2-9a and Fig.2-9b)
paying due attention to weight distribution. [4.1.k]
No decals for the lifting point are applied on the tractor, as
they would be too difficult to apply in the available spaces
and would be all too easily removed or effaced during
normal operation of the tractor. Apply the jack lift to the
lifting points (Fig. 2-10a ) according to the type of opera-
tion and following the safety procedures given before.
WARNING: DO NOT raise the tractor using the tow
hook.
